Peanut butter is a staple spread in most households, Indian and Western. It’s
versatility and nutty deliciousness is what encapsulates most people if they’re
fortunate enough to not be allergic to it.
It has a ton of benefits, of course if had in moderation, as it contains a high
amount of fats and calories. Smear it in some toast for a quick but sustaining
breakfast, in your oatmeal, as a milkshake or protein shake before working out, as
a sandwich or even as a healthy dip to do with fruits such as Apple. It’s so
versatile, it can even be used in many desserts and baked goods such as cookies,
brownies, muffins and more, or in a savoury dish such as a peanut sauce for
satays, as dressings etc
Some of peanut butter’s benefits include a good amount of protein and vitamin
B6. It might be good for the cardiovascular system and control weight for people
with diabetes. It can also reduce the risk of breast cancer as well as regulate blood
sugar levels.
With such a lot of benefits, you’ll want to pick the best peanut butter for you. This
